This is the only forum that seemed appropriate. I just wanted to moan about B&N's pretty useless book categorie options. I would like to look at music related books, try finding 'Music' or 'Movies & TV'. They are listed under Teens & Kids but go there and yes, all you get are kids books. B&N's Non Fiction categories include NO entertainment related categories so unless you are looking a for a specific book, you're screwed. Whoever designed their 'wonderful' site was obviously not from planet Earth.

I have a Nook Tablet, I love it but I buy all my e-books on Amazon, remove the DRM and then, via Calibre, convert them to ePub and send them to my Nook. It's a pain but I much prefer buying books from Amazon than from B&N, there is just no comparison.

Rant over.

Wouldn't it be easier, if you prefer the Amazon categories and search, to search at Amazon and then buy at B&N? That way you don't have to strip DRM and convert.

Or buy a Kindle?

Well, I have a Kindle Keyboard actually which is how I am able to purchase ebooks from Amazon. After seeing how good reading was on the Nook Tablet, I use that now for 90% of my reading and use the Kindle for when I am outside. I really don't like the spec of the Fire so am happy to stick with my Nook.

I did think of that a while back but found that often Amazon had books that B&N did not, especially discounted or self-published books. However, I will say that B&N has the best Magazine choice by far and so I subcribe to a bunch of them as they look great on the Nook.

Completely puzzed here. Why anyone would make such a decision to spend money on the wrong device, then complain that the website doesn't carry what you want, but it doesn't matter because you prefer to buy a book in another format and convert them for said incompatible device?

I can see you are new to the forums so I'm going to assume that you made this drastically wrong choice of devices fairly recently. I'm having a difficult time believing that this is a real post and not a drive-by.

If it's a real post, return it, sell it and buy a more appropriate device for your wants and needs because it doesn't matter how the website is set up here, if you don't buy here.
